1181671 - Disabling tracking protection in private mode shouldn't be remembered after closing/terminating session

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1145503

(Firefox :: Private Browsing, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

Firefox 42.0a1 on Windows 8.1

Disabling the tracking protection in private mode shouldn't be remembered after the session gets terminated.

At the moment, the permission is kept even after the end of the browser session in permissions.sqlite.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open browser.
2. Set privacy.trackingprotection.enabled to true.
3. privacy.trackingprotection.ui.enabled to true.
4. Open private window (I have the profile set to always start in private browsing mode).
5. Open http://www.welt.de
6. Disable tracking protection from the location bar.
7. Terminate browser session.
8. Launch browser.
9. Visit http://www.welt.de
Actual result:
Location bar shows that tracking protection has been disabled for the site.
Expected result:
Browser doesn't remember previous decision to disable tracking protection on that site.
